The San Antonio Spurs and the Trail Blazers will both be looking for better results when they square off Thursday night in Portland. The Spurs have lost the first two games of their current five-game road trip, getting drubbed 141-102 Wednesday night by the Golden State Warriors in Oakland, Calif. They will play three more road games after the All-Star break before returning home to face Detroit on Feb. 27. San Antonio sat out stars LaMarcus Aldridge and DeMar DeRozan for "load management," aka "rest," on Wednesday in the first half of a back-to-back set.
